Fresh fruit juices can really make a difference in your fast by providing the much-needed nutrition that will help you keep going. They are not only refreshing but also in accordance with the sattvik diet; hence, they come really good on this sacred day. Let us explore some delicious and health-boosting juices that you may include in your Janmashtami fast.
"Fresh juices should definitely be a part of your fasting regime", Sahaj Chopra and Sahil Arya, Co-founders and Directors of Juice Guys pointed out. "Fasting during Janmashtami is not only about abstaining from food but also rejuvenating your body", they said. They add that, "Our Juices are made out of locally sourced natural ingredients which are balanced to provide the necessary vitamins and minerals essential for energy while fasting.
They go further to establish how their juices have no artificial sugars or preservatives, and henceforth fit well in a fast diet. "Using fruit sweetness like mango and honey is enough to make a tasty healthful drink without additional sweeteners." This goes in line with the famed FSSAI guideline of disapproving artificial additives.
More flavour can be added to the juice by adding a few mint leaves or a lime, to get additional freshness. Sahil and Sahaj explain that the juicing process is particularly rich in quality, hygiene, and wellness. Since the use of such fresh natural juices is added to your fasting program, you will be naturally well-equipped to observe a holistic fast during Janmashtami, keeping in fact both your body and soul active.
